http://jumpingjackflashhypothesis.blogspot.com/2012/02/jumping-jack-flash-hypothesis-its-gas.html
The seas, lakes and oceans are now pluming deadly hydrogen sulfide and suffocating methane. Hydrogen sulfide is a highly toxic water-soluble heavier-than-air gas and will accumulate in low-lying areas. Methane is slightly more buoyant than normal air and so will be all around, but will tend to contaminate our atmosphere from the top down. These gases are sickening and killing oxygen-using life all around the world, including human life, as our atmosphere is increasingly poisoned. Because both gases are highly flammable and because our entire civilization is built around fire and flammable fuels, this is leading to more fires and explosions. This is an extinction level event and will likely decimate both the biosphere and human population and it is debatable whether humankind can survive this event.
A. More fires and more explosions, especially along the coasts, but everywhere generally.
B. Many more animal die-offs, of all kinds, and especially oceanic species.
C. More multiples of people will be found dead in their homes, as if they'd dropped dead.
D. More corpses found in low-lying areas, all over the world.
E. More unusual vehicular accidents.
F. Improved unemployment numbers as people die off.

2020-07-15 - More hydrogen-sulfide-spewing sargassum seaweed inundates beaches on the island of Antigua:
http://antiguaobserver.com/seaweed-causing-a-stench-on-northern-beaches/
http://strangesounds.org/2020/07/sargassum-invasion-caribbean-2020-video-picture.html
Quote: "From its putrid 'rotten egg' stench to its destruction of household appliances, vast swathes of sargassum seaweed washed up on several of Antigua’s beaches are once again causing headaches for residents. The loathed brown algae swarmed a handful of beaches in the north of the island over the weekend, repelling householders with the toxic gases it emits as it rots. Shell Beach, Jabberwock and Fitches Creek are among the areas worst affected by the latest deluge."
Quote: "Alison Archer likened the thick mat carpeting the sea outside her Fitches Creek home to a 'soup bowl'. 'The gas gives me a heavy head and makes me feel listless,' she told Observer. 'It invades my house and I’ve had to cover various items with towels and plastic to stop them being corroded. In the past, it has destroyed my flatscreen TV, my camera and stereo to name a few. Anything that’s metal, it’s as if it eats it. I have been told it’s dangerous for my health and am thinking of staying with friends until it goes again,' Archer added."
Quote: "Beached sargassum begins to decompose around 48 hours after washing up. It then releases hydrogen sulphide gas and ammonia. Breathing these in may cause respiratory, skin and neurocognitive problems, experts say. Symptoms can include heart palpitations, shortness of breath, dizziness, vertigo, headache, and skin rashes."
Note: Also seizures, convulsions, cardiac events, respiratory arrest, coma, brain damage, kidney damage and death!
2020-07-15 - Unknown foul odor hits Newark-on-Trent (Britain), near the River Trent:
http://www.newarkadvertiser.co.uk/news/unpleasant-and-unknown-odour-in-newark-remains-a-mystery-9116311/
Quote: "An unpleasant smell around Newark is lingering and the source of the odour — described by residents as a mix between sewage, cannabis, vomit or sugar beet — is an ongoing mystery. Clueless and fed-up residents across the district have made complaints about the smell to Newark and Sherwood District Council, but the authority also has no idea where it is coming from."
2020-07-15 - Two deepwater beaked whales wash up and die on the coast in Maine:
http://bangordailynews.com/2020/07/16/news/york/rare-beaked-whales-have-mysteriously-washed-ashore-in-york-and-phippsburg/
http://www.pressherald.com/2020/07/16/two-species-of-rare-beaked-whales-beached-in-maine-within-weeks-of-each-other/
Quote: "But to the surprise — and alarm — of ocean biologists, two have washed up on Maine shores — one last month in York, a dead 14-foot, 2,200-pound Blainville’s beaked whale, and the other in Phippsburg, where a 1,700-pound female Sowerby’s beaked whale died after being saved from a mudflat in Atkins Bay on Saturday, the Times Record reported."
Quote: "It’s troubling that no cause of death has been identified in either case, said Lynda Doughty, director of Bath-based Marine Mammals of Maine."

ReplyDeleteThe Housing Crisis Of 2020: Millions Of Americans Missed Their Last Rent Payments, And Tens Of Millions Could Soon Be Evicted
http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/the-housing-crisis-of-2020-millions-of-americans-missed-their-last-rent-payments-and-tens-of-millions-could-soon-be-evicted
Week after week we continue to get economic numbers that are absolutely horrific, and it appears that we are heading for a housing crisis that will be even worse than what we witnessed in 2008. Back then, millions of Americans lost their homes, but this time around it could be tens of millions. I know that a statement like that may sound overly dramatic, but I believe that many of you that feel that way may change your minds after reading this entire article.
In order to make rent and mortgage payments, Americans need paychecks coming in, and right now people continue to lose jobs at a pace that is hard to believe.
On Thursday, we learned that another 1.3 million Americans filed new claims for unemployment benefits last week. That was worse than expected, and it represented the 17th week in a row when the number of Americans filing new claims for unemployment benefits exceeded one million. [more]

George Soros Funding BLM Style Racial Movements To Topple Donald Trump
http://robinwestenra.blogspot.com/2020/07/a-colour-revolution-in-america.html
Open Society Foundations, an organization established by George Soros is funding $220 million to BLM (Black Lives Matter) style groups focused on ‘Racial Justice’. The public records disclosed that Soros will double his 2016 election’s expenditures to defeat Donald Trump’s re-election campaign. The Open Society Foundations is funding emerging powerful groups like Black Voters Matter, Repairers of The Breach, Circle For Innovations and also the Equal Justice Initiative.
Meanwhile, in an investigation it has been found that 99.64% of the Black Lives Matter’s ‘Defund the Police’ donations go to Joe Biden via ActBlue, a Democrat fundraising platform that is the top donor to Biden for President campaign. [more]

Trump or no Trump, the lack of adequate coverage is the true affront. It should be more widely known that large swathes of a major American metropolis, Minneapolis/St. Paul, still lies in rubble over a month after the riots. And the main perpetrators of this destruction — namely those who committed the most incendiary arson attacks — were, by many accounts relayed to me directly, white Left-wing activists. Refusing to seek out and accurately present this information reflects the mainstream media's propensity to operate under predetermined, politicised assumptions that are antithetical to any rightly-understood conception of journalism.

President Trump has sent an unknown number of federal agents to Portland, Oregon, ostensibly to project federal property amid weeks of protests against racism and police brutality. But federal officers "are also detaining people on Portland streets who aren't near federal property, nor is it clear that all of the people being arrested have engaged in criminal activity," OPB reported Thursday evening. One civil rights lawyer, Juan Chavez, described the federal tactics as "like stop and frisk meets Guantanamo Bay" and "more like abduction" than lawful arrest. [more]

a hail storm last weekend did significant building and crop damage from Kandiyohi County to Nicollet County. Wind speeds reached 50 miles an hour and at times the storm dropped baseball-sized hail. It was a blow for farmers when commodity prices are already down.
"We had a wonderful crop. Best we've had in this area in five years," said Curt Burns, farmer and crop consultant. [video]
"This affected thousands of acres of corn, soy beans, kidney beans, sugar beets, peas, sweet corn, and alfalfa," said Burns.

About 1,320 hectares of fresh farmland have once again been inundated amid the ongoing flooding situation, triggered for a second time by incessant rains and water level rise of the major rivers in Tangail.
Previously, during the first phase that ended a few days ago, around 27,000 farmers incurred losses as crops on 3,839 hectares were inundated, according to the Department of Agricultural Extension (DAE) in Tangail.
"Young plants, sesame and vegetables sustain the most damage in floods," said Ahsan, adding that most of the crops would not have to deal with much harm.
Meanwhile, 84,712 people in Elenga municipality of Kalihati upazila were marooned as of Tuesday afternoon.

STEVE makes unusual summertime appearance, record breaking solar minimum update
https://www.sott.net/article/438189-STEVE-makes-unusual-summertime-appearance-record-breaking-solar-minimum-update
On July 14th, the geomagnetic phenomenon appeared over Canada, streaking the sky with mauve ribbons of light. Harlan Thomas of Calgary, Alberta, reports: "I was out shooting the comet when I noticed a mauve-looking cloud. Wow!" I thought. "STEVE has come to visit NEOWISE. How cool is that?"
STEVE is a recent discovery. It looks like an aurora, but it is not. The purple glow is caused by hot (3000°C) ribbons of gas flowing through Earth's magnetosphere at speeds exceeding 6 km/s (13,000 mph). It appears during some geomagnetic storms, often alongside a type of green aurora known as the "picket fence," also shown in Thomas's photo.
Statistics suggest that STEVE appears most often in spring and fall. What summoned STEVE in mid-summer? It may have been a CME that grazed Earth's magnetic field on July 13th. As our planet passed through the CME's magnetized wake on July 14th, hot currents and plasma waves rippled through Earth's magnetosphere. STEVE was the result. [more; pics]

Yes, you may be reading the wrong horoscope. No, it isn't NASA's fault your zodiac sign changed.
https://www.yahoo.com/news/yes-may-reading-wrong-horoscope-061953535.html
Writer Phil Plait wrote a frustrated article in response to the initial backlash to the 2016 NASA post, saying that NASA really hasn’t discovered anything new.
“The article — well worth your time to read — talks about how the zodiac constellations are defined, and how, over time, they’ve changed,” Plait wrote in a 2016 New Scientist article. “Apparently, someone didn’t read it very carefully, or didn’t understand it, and wrote that NASA had changed the zodiac. So, yeah. Wow.” [more]

First the good news: The biggest US banks have had time to brace themselves for a wave of losses.
The bad news: They are still bracing themselves to withstand a wave of losses. Their earnings this week suggest the worst is yet to come for the American economy, and that Washington may need to provide even more support for workers and businesses.
Six of the biggest lenders all expect heavy credit defaults and soured loans, as shown by their loan loss provisions, which jumped 43% from the already hair-raising totals in the first quarter to a combined $36 billion in the second quarter.

3 Women Arrested For Attacking Spirit Airlines Employees

FYI, that story about 99.4% of BLM donations go to elect Joe Biden is just right-wing propaganda bullshit. Either it's disinformation (e.g. they're lying on purpose) or it's misinformation (they're too stupid or lazy to understand how ActBlue works).
ReplyDeleteActBlue is an umbrella organization that only acts as a conduit to transfer money donated to a cause to that cause. Anybody can set up an account to receive donations through ActBlue. ActBlue doesn't alter the destination of any of the donations. You could set up a 'Tom Needs Cash Quick' account and all money donated to that cause would go to that fund. Similarly, all money donated to BLM goes to BLM and all money donated to the re-elect Biden campaign goes there.
Robin's either a part of the radical right trying to deceive people, or - at best - he's a tool being used by them to propagate misinformation and disinformation. One or the other.
